Note: There were two Benjamin Whitneys with very similar family structures in the 1800 census of Marlborough. Since the official enumeration date was 4 Aug 1800, daughter Lydia would have been born, and the family would have had 4 daughters under 10. This fact was used to identify which Benjamin in the enumeration was this family.
